It's a 68030 box with *awesome* Unix (SunOS), a : great programming environment, plenty of professional applications : available, for around $5K without disk. You can buy it with 8- or 24-bit : color if you need that. Hey! What about an 80386 system? You can get a VGA 4Mb sytem with *awesome* UNIX(TM) System V for less than $4K -with- disk. A 1Mb MSDOS VGA system can come in under $3K -with- disk. With this in mind and the "Power without the price" motto, I would expect the TT to come in below $2K -without- disk (hey - what's the current price of a Mega 2?).
